User Manual for the LG 55LW550T here:

From the manual there seems to be some ambiguity between the input connections (page12) and the input selection options using the remote control (page 43).
The TV has AV1, AV2, and AV3 connections and a single component connection, but the menu shows only AV1 and AV2 but Component 1 and Component 2.
(the AV signals are, composite video, left audio, right audio, and screen [earth])
Is this what you find in practice? If so, what input selection did you make when testing the composite jack input?
AV 3 is the one I am trying to get to work and AV2 is the one with the plugs bouncing off the tv mount I am only on the blue highlighted RGB in thye picture to show that the AV3 is activated because it is in colour and not greyed out.
On the PS2 output I tried both Pb Rr - whatever and The other one and it made no difference.

Thanks- that clears up the TV input selection ambiguity nicely.
As far as I can tell, after reading the TV user manual and PS2 user manual, this is a summary of the position.
(1) The PS2 can output composite video, left audio and right audio signals on the three phono connectors of the PS2 lead.
(2) The TV AV3 jack socket accepts the (1) above signals.
(3) The depiction of a phono plug in the TV manual is simply an error and should show a jack plug.
(4) The TV component input is achieved by by feeding the three component video signals (Y, Pb, Pr) into the right TV jack socket (to supply video to the TV) A separate cable then feeds left and right audio to the TV composite input (AV3) to provide sound as shown in the TV user manual. This is not relevant to the present exercise but is just to explain the two jack connections on the TV.
The conclusion is that the PS2/TV AV3 connection should work.
I suggest that the best way forward is to establish the video connection first and leave the audio disconnected for the time being.
The composite video input is the yellow connector on the cable that connects to the TV AV3 jack socket, so, (with the jack plug pushed fully home into the TV AV3 jack socket and AV3 input selected on the TV menu) if you could connect each of the signals from the PS2 to the yellow connector in turn and find which one (if any) gives a picture that would be a great help in getting the AV3 input working.
